The T2 can be tied, spliced, or lashed to almost anything. This soft-attachment versatility opens up a world of rigging possibilities, allowing for secure placement on virtually any part of your boat, from spars and straps to padeyes. A length of Spectra® line is included to facilitate immediate integration into your system.
Ideal for a multitude of applications, the HARKEN Carbo T2 29 mm excels in systems requiring precise and rapid adjustment. For traveler controls, its smooth, low-friction sheave ensures effortless car movement.
